Phil & Francine Schacht I mentioned this cradle act just yesterday This was on Beatty in the mid 70s
Likely in Daytona with new canvas
Phil and Francine were great people from the beginning. Bob Yerkes taught them the flying act, and they got a big moment filming the George Plimpton special.
Plimpton tall & lanky was a very good sport during the whole long shebang & sported many black & blue bruises along with strong fragrance of horse linament They had to fudge edit the ending to appear as if he actually caught the trick Much of it was done during the Philly engagement maybe at Liberty Bell Park
